Our Story
A freight partner you'd actually recommend.
Murphy Freight LLC was founded by logistics veterans who got tired of watching brokers treat shippers as ticket numbers and carriers as commodities. We do this differently.
Murphy Freight LLC was founded by logistics veterans who got tired of watching brokers treat shippers as ticket numbers and carriers as commodities. We do this differently.
We're a U.S.-based, family-owned freight brokerage headquartered in Norfolk, Virginia. We hold an active FMCSA broker authority, carry a $75K BMC-84 surety bond, and run a vetted network of more than 12,000 carriers.
But the credentials only tell part of the story. What we actually do is sit in a room every morning at 6 a.m. and look at every load on our board. We know which lanes are tight this week, which carriers are reliable in February in the Rockies, and which receivers will keep a driver waiting for six hours if you don't call ahead.
That kind of operational knowledge can't be replaced by an app. It's why our shippers stay, and why our drivers come back to our loads.

Four commitments we make to every shipper and every carrier we work with.
If we book it, we cover it. If something goes wrong, you hear from us first — not the receiver.
One named contact who knows your account. No queues, no scripts, no hand-offs to the night shift.
Dry van, reefer, flatbed, expedited, drayage, LTL, oversize, sea and air. We've moved them all.
We'd rather earn your business for the next decade than win a load this week with a quote we can't honor.
Murphy Freight LLC operates under active FMCSA broker authority with full surety bonding and cargo insurance. Every credential below is verifiable through public federal databases.
